Will miss our phone calls. RIP Cousin
Will always remember Ron as he was our ringbearer 1957
He always made me laugh! Rest In Peace Ron
Ron would ride his horse over to my grandparents home (Clay & Anges Knapp). That was likely 60+years ago and I still recall his smile and lighthearted spirit!
RIP Ron!

Ron was an important part of the Cooperstown class of 1968. He was involved in music and played football. Ron had a great sense of humor and had many friends. More than a few of us recall fondly of Ron’s Dodge Dart and the often thrilling rides we had in it with him. We will miss you Ron.
Rip Ron, you had a wonderful smile and contagious laugh.
I loved you within the time and space we shared
Rest in Power Ron, I still have the wood stencils of Ron & Roc.
Thank you for teaching me.
Love “Roc” Nebiyou H May
